Book Physical Layer Security in 5G and Beyond Wireless Networks Enabling Technologies

This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information security has always been a critical concern for wireless communications due to the broadcast nature of the open wireless medium. Commonly, security relies on cryptographic encryption techniques at higher layers to ensure information security. However, traditional cryptographic methods may be inadequate or inappropriate due to novel improvements in the computational power of devices and optimization approaches. Therefore, supplementary techniques are required to secure the transmission data. Physical layer security (PLS) can improve the security of wireless communications by exploiting the characteristics of wireless channels. Therefore, we study the PLS performance in the fifth generation (5G) and beyond wireless networks enabling technologies in this thesis. The thesis consists of three main parts. In the first part, the PLS design and analysis for Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is carried out for several scenarios. More specifically, in this part, we study the underlay relay-aided D2D communications to improve the PLS of the cellular network. We propose a cooperative scheme, whereby the D2D pair, in return for being allowed to share the spectrum band of the cellular network, serves as a friendly jammer using full-duplex (FD) and half-duplex (HD) transmissions and relay selection to degrade the wiretapped signal at an eavesdropper. This part aims to show that spectrum sharing is advantageous for both D2D communications and cellular networks concerning reliability and robustness for the former and PLS enhancement for the latter. Closed-form expressions for the D2D outage probability, the secrecy outage probability (SOP), and the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity (PNSC) are derived to assess the proposed cooperative system model. The results show enhancing the robustness and reliability of D2D communication while simultaneously improving the cellular network's PLS by generating jamming signals towards the eavesdropper. Furthermore, intensive Monte-Carlo simulations and numerical results are provided to verify the efficiency of the proposed schemes and validate the derived expressions' accuracy. In the second part, we consider a secure underlay cognitive radio (CR) network in the presence of a primary passive eavesdropper. Herein, a secondary multi-antenna full-duplex destination node acts as a jammer to the primary eavesdropper to improve the PLS of the primary network. In return for this favor, the energy-constrained secondary source gets access to the primary network to transmit its information so long as the interference to the latter is below a certain level. As revealed in our analysis and simulation, the reliability and robustness of the CR network are improved, while the security level of the primary network is enhanced concurrently. Finally, we investigate the PLS design and analysis of reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided wireless communication systems in an inband underlay D2D communication and the CR network. An RIS is used to adjust its reflecting elements to enhance the data transmission while improving the PLS concurrently. Furthermore, we investigate the design of active elements in RIS to overcome the double-fading problem introduced in the RISaided link in a wireless communications system. Towards this end, each active RIS element amplifies the reflected incident signal rather than only reflecting it as done in passive RIS modules. As revealed in our analysis and simulation, the use of active elements leads to a drastic reduction in the size of RIS to achieve a given performance level. Furthermore, a practical design for active RIS is proposed.

Book Wireless Physical Layer Security

Download or read book Wireless Physical Layer Security written by Biao He and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current research on physical layer security is far from implementations in practical networks, arguably due to impractical assumptions in the literature and the limited applicability of physical layer security. Aiming to reduce the gap between theory and practice, this thesis focuses on wireless physical layer security towards practical assumptions and requirements. In the first half of the thesis, we reduce the dependence of physical layer security on impractical assumptions. The secrecy enhancements and analysis based on impractical assumptions cannot lead to any true guarantee of secrecy in practical networks. The current study of physical layer security was often based on the idealized assumption of perfect channel knowledge on both legitimate users and eavesdroppers. We study the impact of channel estimation errors on secure transmission designs. We investigate the practical scenarios where both the transmitter and the receiver have imperfect channel state information (CSI). Our results show how the optimal transmission design and the achievable throughput vary with the amount of knowledge on the eavesdropper's channel. Apart from the assumption of perfect CSI, the analysis of physical layer security often ideally assumed the number of eavesdropper antennas to be known. We develop an innovative approach to study secure communication systems without knowing the number of eavesdropper antennas by introducing the concept of spatial constraint into physical layer security. That is, the eavesdropper is assumed to have a limited spatial region to place (possibly an infinite number of) antennas. We show that a non-zero secrecy rate is achievable with the help of a friendly jammer, even if the eavesdropper places an infinite number of antennas in its spatial region. In the second half of the thesis, we improve the applicability of physical layer security. The current physical layer security techniques to achieve confidential broadcasting were limited to application in single-cell systems. The primary challenge to achieve confidential broadcasting in the multi-cell network is to deal with not only the inter-cell but also the intra-cell information leakage and interference. To tackle this challenge, we design linear precoders performing confidential broadcasting in multi-cell networks. We optimize the precoder designs to maximize the secrecy sum rate with based on the large-system analysis. Finally, we improve the applicability of physical layer security from a fundamental aspect. The analysis of physical layer security based on the existing secrecy metric was often not applicable in practical networks. We propose new metrics for evaluating the secrecy of transmissions over fading channels to address the practical limitations of using existing secrecy metrics for such evaluations. The first metric establishes a link between the concept of secrecy outage and the eavesdropper's ability to decode confidential messages. The second metric provides an error-probability-based secrecy metric which is often used for the practical implementation of secure wireless systems. The third metric characterizes how much or how fast the confidential information is leaked to the eavesdropper. We show that the proposed secrecy metrics enable one to appropriately design secure communication systems with different views on how secrecy is measured.

Book Physical layer Security Enhancement in Wireless Communication Systems

Download or read book Physical layer Security Enhancement in Wireless Communication Systems written by Hao Li and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without any doubt, wireless infrastructures and services have fundamental impacts on every aspect of our lives. Despite of their popularities, wireless communications are vulnerable to various attacks due to the open nature of radio propagation. In fact, communication security in wireless networks is becoming more critical than ever. As a solution, conventional cryptographic techniques are deployed on upper layers of network protocols. Along with direct attacks from lower layer, wireless security challenges come with the rapid evolution of sophisticated decipher techniques. Conventional security mechanisms are not necessarily effective against potential attacks from the open wireless environment anymore. As an alternative, physical-layer(PHY) security, utilizing unique features from lower layer, becomes a new research focus for many wireless communication systems. In this thesis, three mechanisms for PHY security enhancement are investigated. Beginning with a discussion on the security vulnerability in highly standardized infrastructures, the thesis proposed a time domain scrambling scheme of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system to improve the PHY security. The method relies on secretly scrambling each OFDM symbol in time domain, resulting in constellation transformation in frequency domain, to hide transmission features. As a complement to existing secrecy capacity maximization based optimal cooperative jamming systems, a security strategy based on the compromised secrecy region (CSR) minimization in cooperative jamming is then proposed when instantaneous channel state information(CSI) is not available. The optimal parameters of the jammer are derived to minimize the CSR which exhibits high secrecy outage probability. At last, security enhancement of OFDM system in cooperative networks is also investigated. The function selection strategies of cooperative nodes are studied. Our approach is capable of enhancing the security of broadband communications by selecting the proper function of each cooperative node. Numerical results demonstrate the feasibility of three proposed physical layer security mechanisms by examining the communication reliability, achievable CSR and secrecy capacity respectively.
